5% per month

[CPTrader]

Quote from greenhunt:

Like I said earlier I will start posting my trades and provide complete transparency in two weeks. I started this thread early so I can get a feel for the comments, responses and what type of people are on this forum. And no, I do not have a foolproof way of making tons money with no risk that any fool can follow.

It is emotionally very difficult to follow a strategic system and it is not for everyone.
I am not a very emotional person, quite the opposite actually, but I have never lost more money faster than when I was trading futures on a discretionary basis, phew.

Yep futures trading... I still wonder many times if I would have been better off traidng stcoks during the go-go years. But I had limited cpaital, and futures seemd to be the only vehicle given my circumstances...but the leverage killed me!!!

why all that talk about 5% a month?
why not 5% a day?
why not 25% a day?

Hey, if you can make 5% per day you will be richer than Bill Gates in no time and have no reason to follow the thread of a mere mortal.

Trading what? Give some body $10B in funny account and except for currencies there are very few items where they can park a heavy chunk except for buy and hold basis for few weeks at a time.

Greenthunt welcome, wish you good luck.
By the way, I am just interested to know what you mean by 'I am always hedged ' sounds like neutral positions ', could you say some more about your hedging; do you make use for example of short term market inefficiencies. Just interested.

I am thinking about posting my trades in this Journal in order to help those who would be pleased with my type of returns. After reading some of these posts it seems there are alot of misguided souls out there, no offense.

I'm a soul misguided by this (Journal?) thread already, no offense.

What thread? Since Greenhunt hasn't posted in 3 weeks, he must have lost interest.
